teams falling apart. just had miles austin go down with injury. i really need to make a run to get into the playoffs. my wrs are nicks, fitz, miles, decker. my rbs are forte, mathews, tolbert, chris johnson. point system is .5 ppr. i just got offered gronk and bmarsh for cj and jimmy graham. keeper league. cj and bmarsh cant be kept so its a wash. gronk is rd 9 and jimmy g is rd 6. jimmy g still has his bye week to come.

I agree w/Cain - you're buying high on two RBs that could easily have just played their best game of the season. Pass. Rice + Best can be solid (assuming Best ever comes back) and your WR core isn't good enough to lose the one guy who can really blow up routinely.

One owner (DMC) sucks and because of that you're going to veto a trade that screws the other owner too? I wouldn't. Just boot the mail-it-in guy in the offseason.

It's a solid deal. BMarsh is a pain in the ass to own, but you will be fine w/Forte / Matthew / Tolbert and I'm not sure Decker is reliable at all. Are you starting 3 WR?

I guess I'll just stick with my team, no since in messing with what's working.

for next week I have no idea who I'm going to bench for Julio though.

RB-SJax
RB- Blount

WR-AJ Green
WR-Maclin
Flex- DeMarco

It's between Green and Blount. Green against that Pittsburgh defense is scary, but I'm more worried about Dalton finding Green when he gets open against the D. Blount had an ok week and he faces a good houston defense but you know he's going to get you anywhere from 18-25 carries and won't lose carries to a "bigger" back inside the 20.

DJax cost me a game - though I stay in first place based on points. I lost by 3. Went into last night's game up by 9 with Desean vs. Philly DST. He really is frustrating to own and I'm thinking about benching him in favor of Torrey Smith at this point. It's ppr so Smith is a solid 8+ every week, which is more than can be said for DJax. It's even more pathetic considering this league awards return points.

The TE swap doesn't concern me at all. Gronk does more blocking and is a bit more prone to a bad week, but he's still better than everyone not named Graham and he's not far off him anyway. He was blocking a ton vs. the Giants and still dropped a hundred and a TD on 'em.

Wonder if i could send them two or Maclin or AJ and Bradford for Lesean.

Wishful thinking? I've won 4 in a row so maybe I shouldnt even consider trading lol

Yes, they are must starts. As bullish as I've been since the summer on McCoy and Maclin, I'm not sure I'd bother pushing for McCoy with Murray & Jones looking beastly. AJ has awesome matchups in the playoffs, so I'd try Julio (still don't trust the Falcons run-first philosophy) and Murray for McCoy. I agree with Rob, though - I wouldn't even consider moving McCoy unless I had dire need elsewhere. I can't even get the guy with McCoy to bite with Rodgers as the bait. And, honestly, I don't blame him.

I don't think it's even close - bench Blount. Houston has been very good vs. the run and Tampa still hasn't show the sense required to feed Blount. He looks like a guy that needs to build up steam and they just don't do it.

Bennett is if you need WR help. Raiders WRs are at the whim of Hue, apparently. That mess is the WR equivalent of Shanahanigans.

Chicago plays Den / Sea / GB to finish the fantasy season. I wouldn't expect Bennett to be a WR1, but he should be a solid play most weeks. There aren't a ton of weeks left to be holding that #1 spot hoping for something better.
